For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this? (Esther 4:14 NKJV)
Heavenly Father, Today marks the Jewish holiday, Purim — When You used the courage of Esther to save Your chosen people from annihilation. The story of Esther is a reminder that You are always, always, always in control. Even when evil is plotted, You have a plan. And You place Your people in specific positions to fill Your will. I pray that I, and others who call You Lord, will use the position You gave us well. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
